Not that I'd really be betting on either of these guys anyway but the lack of a minor league in the NFL really hurts things like this. Not a lot of opportunity to prove yourself as an over 30 QB that hasn't played for a few years. You get a few camps and maybe the preseason and that's it.

Neither guy is even eligible to be a practice squad player, so realistically the only chance they will have is to somehow play well enough to make a 53-man roster for the first team that gives them a shot (as nobody else is picking them up mid-season). Even if their chance of making a roster would still be in the (low) single digits with a minor league it's better than the functional 0% they have right now.

Speaking of Oregon Ducks, I hope Kevtones isn't permabanned. I would feel guilty as hell if he was perma'd in a stupid thread I made. I thought at most it was a 2 week TO but it has been almost a month now. Cyan, investigate plz

We just gave up two of our season tickets since they were mostly going unused, which is bad timing since I'm getting married this year. Gonna have to fight off some family members for the Nebraska game.

That's probably the connection for Hamdan and Quinn since they were there at the same time. That Flood connection goes way back, but I still don't get it. I'm assuming he sees something we don't. I was a little skeptical of him the first season but their personnel decisions seem to be in the right direction, gonna give him a little benefit of the doubt for coaching decisions.

19,000 person in-door stadium + 14,000 enrollment + extremely low state funding + nearest metro of over 300k is 330 miles away (Fargo is like metro of 220k) + geographically distant from existing FBS conferences = not going to happen for a very very long time... unless they form a new FBS conference, with say, Montana, Montana State, North Dakota, South Dakota State, South Dakota, Northern Iowa, Youngstown?, Missouri State? and idk, Southern Illinois? Add NDSU to make 10.

Bolded are already in a FB conference together but the rest of their sports are split between the Missouri Valley and Summit conferences. Montana schools are in the Big Sky conference.
